Colloid/Solution Partitioning of Metal-Selective Organic Ligands, and its Relevance to Cu, Pb and Cd Cycling in the Firth of Clyde

The electrochemical lability of Cu, Pb and Cd and the complexation parameters (stability constants, ligand concentrations) of their organic ligands were determined by anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) in 14 samples collected in April–May 1994 from the lower Clyde Estuary (S<30•0), through the surface estuarine plume (30•0
